Price last checked: 23 Jan 2015. Confirm current price before buying.
A 3-inch TFT touchscreen running at 240 x 320 pixels sits at the front of this budget handset, paired with Nokia's Asha software platform 1.2 rather than a full smartphone OS. Multitouch support caps at two fingers, which is fine for basic navigation but a reminder of where this device sits in the lineup. Storage starts modest too, though a 4GB microSD card is bundled in and you can expand up to 32GB.
The rear camera is a 5MP unit with LED flash, capable of 480p video at 19fps; there's no front camera for selfies. A 1200mAh Li-Ion battery (BL-4U) keeps things running, and connectivity covers Wi-Fi b/g/n plus HSDPA data up to 7.2Mbps, so basic browsing and downloads are covered even without GPS.
Nokia Asha 503 price in Malaysia starts from RM209. It comes in six colour options: yellow, black, green, red, blue, and white, and weighs just over 110 grams.
